Team Profile
UWE Racing is built up of a large number of students from various disciplines including Engineering, Marketing, Law, Geography and Business. We are proud to have such a variety of enthusiastic individuals working as a team to design and build our car for our first Class 1 entry! UWE Racing is run outside of our curriculum and is done entirely in our own time, which has allowed us to build up an extremely passionate team! The chassis is the only part we had at the beginning of this year, so the bulk of our work has been manufacturing, with a few design alterations along the way.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank our title sponsor, Spires Engineering, for their help and support this year, along with all of our other sponsors who have made this possible!
